Really good fantasy story
So, I happened upon this book while on holiday in New York when I was in Midtown Comics, it sounded interesting and so thought why not.....

3 boys hide hide themselves overnight in this abandoned shop after they committed a robbery. While there, a letter drops through the letterbox asking for advice. After a little investigation the trio learn that the old owner of the store used to give advice. The 3 decide to write back and they receive another response. After a time, they learn that they are receiving letters from the past and that time moves differently inside the shop than out..... that's all I will say so as not to spoil the rest of the book. If you are a sci-fi or fantasy lover..... give this a go.

The characters are really endearing and while the story does jump from present to past to future, it is easy to keep up with to know what timeline you are currently in.
